First Woman Alpha

When Cen Zhao, Qu Yao and Zhong Liuying returned to the camp, they clearly felt a pressure.

When they were outside, the pheromones they released could obviously disperse the overwhelming insects, but in the camp, this effect was greatly reduced. When the pheromones of the three people were superimposed, there were still many insects that could rush away from them. It's very close, and the bugs that can get close to them under the pressure of pheromone play one by one, and the biggest one is bigger than a normal basketball. When it flies by, it brings a sound like some kind of military. Aircraft, sounds special.

Cen Zhao and Qu Yao's expressions were very serious, and they were ready to do anything at any time. Zhong Liu should hide behind them pitifully, looking left and right every step of the way, for fear that a big bug would fly out of nowhere and attack him. create a threat.

In the camp, the tents that could be seen everywhere were only left in pieces, and the living utensils placed in the tents were not spared.

It can be seen that those bugs are very destructive, but it is strange that they will not cause any damage to the trees and vegetation. It seems that they are only aimed at artificial products. Except for the branches of the shrubs that were crushed by flying and landing, they have not been seen eating plants. Qu Yao was curious about their recipes.

In her opinion, this kind of worm is a natural material that can be raised. If you can figure out their living habits and growth environment, the follow-up resources will continue to flow, and it may not necessarily be possible to form a new industry.

Generally speaking, such insects will use plants as their main food source, but these insects have not eaten since they appeared. Do they have other prey objects?

animal?

But they didn't attack the living people in the camp before, did they?

Is it a certain kind of creature?

After looking around for a while, Cen Zhao asked Qiqi to turn on the holographic recording function, preparing to record everything that happened around him in detail, and it would be more detailed when it was handed over to experts for analysis later. The only drawback is that once this function is turned on , Qiqi's other functions will be limited to a certain extent, and it will occupy her terminal network channel. If something dangerous happens, the alarm may fail, but she has a miniature mecha, so she is not afraid of anything. .

The three stopped and walked, and soon saw the first hole.

The diameter of this hole is not large, Cen Zhao can cover it with a slap, and there is a half-foot-tall bush blocking it. If a bug hadn't happened to fly out of it, the three of them might have ignored it.

Cen Zhao squatted down, grabbed a handful of soil at the entrance of the hole and pinched it, carefully feeling the difference between it and ordinary soil.

Most of the soil in the Tiankeng is mud-grey with a tinge of purple, and the soil has a strong graininess. If it is laid flat, it will look like some kind of frosted metal from a distance, but the soil at the mouth of the pit is bluish. The hand is very sticky, it seems to be mixed with mucus-like substances, it is non-irritating to the skin, and the stickiness is very strong. When you put it under the nose and smell it, it smells a little fishy, ​​and the smell is somewhat familiar. Insects are similar.

As soon as Cen Zhao came to a conclusion, he heard Qu Yao, who was also grabbing a handful of soil next to him, let out a "huh", and then put the soil he just grabbed directly in front of him, sticking out his tongue and smearing it.

Cen Zhao: "Hey, what are you doing!"

Qu Yao "Bah" spat out the thing on the tip of his tongue, his eyes widened, and he said in disbelief, "This thing is so sweet!"

"Sweet?"

"Yes, you can try it."

Cen Zhao immediately threw away the remaining soil in his hand: "No, you have enough to taste. Then, what are these?"

"The secretions of these insects, in addition to some common protein substances in insect secretions, there are many substances that I have not seen before, as well as bacterial species that cannot be determined whether they are derived or native. Generally speaking, it is very complicated and requires Professional instruments for analysis.”

"Where does the sweetness come from?"

"It's about one of the substances that can paralyze the sense of taste. Just because it makes the taste feel 'sweet' doesn't mean it's sweet."

"Is there content available?"

"Until the specific test conclusions are drawn, no conclusion can be drawn, but according to my feeling, it should still have development value."

Cen Zhao glanced at the camp where the insects were flying, and nodded lightly: "Let's take a look inside."

So the three continued deep into the camp.

There are more and more holes on the ground, and it is getting bigger and bigger. It is less than 20 meters deep from the periphery. The largest hole is enough for one person to go down.

But fortunately, although these holes are large, they are all made by the worms, not just one worm.

As they walked, just as they were about to reach the core area of ​​the camp, the three of them stopped in unison and showed shocked expressions.

In the core area of ​​the camp, which was empty before, there were several blue mounds about three meters high. The color was gradient. The highest top was dark blue, and the color of the ground was almost the same as the color of normal land.

On these mounds, there are more than a dozen large beetles that look similar to those flying beetles, but with more vivid colors, each of which is the size of a washbasin. The short legs slowly crawled on the mound, leaving some mucus-like substances in the places where they crawled, and then they were wiped out in just a few seconds.

Of course, it wasn't just the mounds that shocked the three, but also the large holes surrounding these mounds.

Each of these large holes is the size of an entrance to an underground passage, from which beetles of different sizes fly out continuously.

Qu Yao swallowed and said in a toothache tone: "Is the effect of the thing you gave them just now good? I think they should go down. If the thing doesn't last long, they may have an accident. "

Cen Zhao is very confident about this: "As long as they don't break it, the effect is guaranteed, but I'm not sure if all beetles are sensitive to pheromones, such as those colored bugs over there, we stand It's been a while here, but they don't seem to feel at all."

Qu Yao took out a ray knife from his carry-on bag, grabbed it in his hand for self-defense, then licked his lower lip, and said with a heroic expression on his face, "I'll take a closer look."

Cen Zhao took a step back, raised one hand and made a "OK" gesture: "Please."

Zhong Liuying took a step back with a disheartened face, almost sticking to Cen Zhao. It can be seen that if he can, he wants to leave this ghost place now, and he doesn't know why he is so afraid.

Because of concerns, Qu Yao did not take back the pheromone when he approached the mounds, but what was unexpected was that the big colorful bug that didn't respond to their pheromone at first suddenly stopped moving when Qu Yao approached, and was the closest to her. The two of them adjusted their direction and turned their heads towards her, as if people were turning their heads to check the situation.

Qu Yao's footsteps stopped for a few seconds because of this change, but the big colorful bugs didn't move next, so she tentatively took a few steps forward.

The tentacles of those bugs moved, and then moved backwards to the back of the mound, as if they were dodging.

Qu Yao cautiously walked to the edge of a large hole, squatted down and grabbed a handful of soil from the hole as before, then put it under his nose to smell it, and stuck out his tongue to lick it.

"Pooh!"

Although there was a distance, Cen Zhao still clearly saw a flash of pain on Qu Yao's face, and his heart suddenly lifted.

"What's up?"

Qu Yao spit out a few more mouthfuls, then took out a bottle of oral spray and sprayed it in his mouth twice, and then said: "It is dozens of times more irritating than the previous one, it can be regarded as a neurotoxin, fortunately I just Dipped it."

Seeing that she was fine, Cen Zhao didn't worry too much, just said, "Be careful."

Qu Yao nodded, got up and went around the big hole, came to a mound, reached out and touched it twice.

"Huh? It's tough!"

Qu Yao smashed the mound with his hands for a long time without getting a piece out. In the end, he used a ray knife to dig out a piece from the top. Different from the blue outside, the inner cut surface showed a crystal clear gem quality. ,It looks very nice.

Because he didn't know what this thing was, with the previous lessons, Qu Yao no longer easily put things into his mouth, but took out a portable testing device to test the hard object in his hand.

Even at a distance, Cen Zhao could see the dazzling light from the "stone" under the light.

"Is this a biogem?" she asked.

Qu Yao nodded: "I don't know if there is anything else in it, but just looking at the appearance, it can indeed be listed in the gem category."

Zhong Liuying stuck his head out from behind Cen Zhao: "Didn't those two people check these mounds before?"

Qu Yao looked around and found no obvious traces of artificial exploration. He shrugged nonchalantly and said, "Only they know that."

As she spoke, she stuffed the cut stone into her bag, then turned her head to look at the big hole that she had bypassed just now, as if she wanted to go down and have a look.

Zhong Liuying twitched the corner of his mouth: "Sister, don't think about it!"

Cen Zhao tilted his head and glanced at him: "If you don't want to go down, just stay there and wait for us to come back."

Zhong Liuying immediately straightened her back with a firm look on her face: "No! I want to be with the team... sister! Where is my sister and I am!"

Just kidding, even if he goes down to the ground, there will be someone to accompany him. He stays on the ground alone, God knows what will happen. His current personal combat power is not high, and his abilities are sometimes ineffective, and he is not equipped like a captain. With high-end individual soldier equipment, if he really encounters any danger, he may only have a handful of ashes left when the two bosses return to the ground.

Seeing his reaction so big, Cen Zhao only thought it was funny, but he didn't say anything. He waved his hand to signal him to follow, then raised his foot and walked towards Qu Yao. The two stood at the entrance of the cave and looked down.

The entrance of the cave was pitch black, and nothing could be seen, and the bugs that used to enter and exit the cave frequently disappeared because they stood here.

Cen Zhao turned on the searchlight and shone into the cave, and found that the inner wall of the cave was also glowing blue, but it was far worse than the blue on the mound.

The inside of the hole is not straight down, but has a certain slope, and the **** is uneven, which can effectively prevent slipping and is very convenient for pedestrians.

After watching for a while, Cen Zhao took the lead.

"Let's go."
